    Accidentally lands with his right foot on the guys leg which off-balances him, and he instinctively puts out his left leg to balance himself. At no stage does he look where the guy is, or aim for him or anything. It's pure natural reaction. Joke of a decision.

    If that incident had been the other way around I would be screaming for action.  It looks really bad and a suspect a neutral would concur with the ban, I can't speak for the rest of the world!

    Now you are being silly.

    If there's one constant throughout all of this debacle it's the club's steadfast refusal to offer any form of communication whatsoever - why do you think now that this will miraculously alter?

    TBF they did hold meeting though but it is secret?and only a select few know what is going on, maybe, or maybe it was another anger venting exercise.  #crowdfundingstatueforMel

    Dont you have to do it in front if a clinical professional?

    I think you do it via zoom or something if you take the kit with you.  you need to show a certificate before you fly.  proviso, this is my experience travelling twice and having friends visit next week.  there maybe other ways but I think you are correct, it must be formally witnessed

    Sounds to me like the EFL are a complete bunch of total amateurs.

    I doubt they could even re-arrange the following words to form a sentence: organise, brewery, a, couldn't, a, piss-up, in

    do any of us know how quickly the club lodged the restated accounts with the efl?

    Chuffin ell! What would he have to do to get £9m?? appear in the Champions League Final with his Gran in goals.

    Not that he wasn’t worth £9m I know he is worth every penny I just don’t think we got his true value.

    only worth what someone will pay for him, again

    Yet they're included on the EFL Embargo list for "Breach of Profit and Sustainability Rules"

    soft embargo which is a different world to our situation however unfair it is.  The EFL make a rule change to create a 4 year period, I can't see how thye can punish a club in those circumstances.  The note may relate to filing obligations

    They're in talks with Andy Carroll now FFS

    Baba Rahman, Danny Drinkwater, Andy Carroll.... some embargo this is

    "As a result of these Financial Fair Play amendments, clubs will now report on a four-year period that covers 2017/18-2020/21 instead of three years 2017/18-2019/20."

    "However, years three and four will be assessed together with the total Adjusted Earning Before Tax from both periods averaged into one reporting period."

    I think 2020 is lost as a year where penalties will be awarded.  Muck up Y4 and I think they can expect significant scrutiny.  Still their timing was lucky on the face of it.  Not sure but as it currently reads the 2022 reporting will be for 3 years

    No worries mate, I was just taking the piss, I do worry whether my Aussie sense of humour comes over a bit weird sometimes. Last night here before we head inland to the bush. Here's a dusk shot looking north.IMG20210830171941.thumb.jpg.568578758056f1649621ca43522e7745.jpg

    is it too cold for salties at this time of year

    We will be in serious relegation trouble if we do not bring at least another couple of attacking options in , games so far this season have shown that we are still not able to score / kill teams off and we have virtually nothing to come off the bench from an attacking point of view, with Kaz , Bielik , Lawrence & Knight available we'd be OK but avoiding injuries and suspensions is just not possible in this league , we've had an ok start but failed to put away teams in and around us even though we've been the better team for the first half , it's not just talent it's energy With talent and we are woefully short

    well we are under an embargo and if we weren't the owner appears to not wish to fund any purchases, I agree although the start has been better than expected we are in serious trouble

    Doesn't really matter whether it's a Derby supporter or not he has seriously messed up. Some think because, to use their words, "he is one of us" that he shouldn't get so much flak, would people be so defensive if the owner was Sheikh Mah Whilly or Crown Prince Mustafa Laugh who also claimed to love the club and only had the clubs interest at heart etc. The only interest he had in his heart was his own,he wanted to bask in the glory of taking the club to the promised land but once it failed he was lost and didn't know what to do

    can't wait for the statue to be built

    No their crimes are far far worse than ours, to illustrate this I will repost something I posted a few days ago;

    "How many points deduction will Reading get based on these results?

    Reading made operating losses of £43.5million, compared to £40.7million the previous year, while accumulated losses totalled £138million.

    Wages were 211 per cent of revenue - slight progress somewhat compared with 226 per cent the previous year. Nevertheless, this is is still above the level recommended by UEFA, which is 70 per cent.

    My guess is a fixed penalty £100 fine and a kindly reminder to keep their losses under £100million next submittal."

    These numbers are taken from their filed accounts and show that have driven a transatlantic liner through the P&S regulations. This only illustrates even more clearly the vendetta against the Rams, the numbers involved in over spend would/should trigger a 21 points deduction, will it happen, I predict not.  

    p.s. Also they have sold their ground, their training ground and the land around the ground, to themselves.

    I just sent you the link I started when their results came out.

    Covid rules will have an impact given that 19/20 is now merged with 20/21 and it is now a 4 year period, or so I have read.  If that is the case maybe the EFL have abandoned penalties for 19/20 but are still engaging with teams that appear way over.  Reading placed on soft embargo rather than our crippling one.  Guess we were too early to avoid the scutiny

    Please can you show your workings as to how you get to about £200m of investment.

    A significant reason we have had a significant deficit in income during his tenure is buying average players at top dollar, and not getting any fees at the end of their contracts, and in between paying wages that were inappropriately high to our generated income. He has gambled spectacularly badly.

    he may also owe the club money on the PP purchase.  I suspect and I could be wrong, the more recent funding has been used to reduce the debt he owes to the club

    Thats for the day PCR Right?

    did you have to do thr lateral flow before getting on the plabe back to the UK?

    Sorry not thar smart, just followed the rules when completing passenger location forms, you may need 2 depending on the rules the country you are flying to.  Had to have a it to fly to enter uk, a 2 day uk test, and a gib test within 24 hours of arrival (which is free btw).  If your uk arrival PLF does not detail the day 2 test you will be denied entry.  I saw quite a few that failed that and they had to wait to order or arrange the tests.  The uk PLF cannot be filled in until48 hours before your flight and you have already checked in.  Doesn’t help when trying to understand the process

    My day 2 rest was signed for by my neighbour, who wasn't home for the first 2 days when I got back. Luckily they turned up just in time. 

    Self swab put in a priority mail box in spondon.  Tbh I could have swabbed any orifice

    From Amber, you need a negative test, taken in the presence of a medical professional, within 72hrs of your arrival time in Uk. It can be antigen or pcr. 

    I didn’t need this for day 2 test and iwas out of uk for day 5.  Passenger location form dictates what is needed

    Happy to be corrected but it seems like best option for those living in Derby is testing at EMA. The real bugger is that fliight arrives after test center close so i'll need to get back there following day what a pallaver. Also am i right in thinking that getting  back to England from  amber country i need a negative test (lateral flow will do), but does the test have to be certified by a doctor?

    That’s what I did.  Very efficient cheaper than most.  Still have to go through the process of registering the kit online.  Time before did the home thing didn’t tell me that somebody had to be home to sign for the kit.  More expensive and a bit of a faff really

    Yes, I know.

    But if they're placing their trust in the opinion of professional accountancy firms, don't want to go to the length of auditing things themselves, their only rule is that the club's accounts meet industry standards and a club uses a professional accountancy firm who sign off the accounts as compliant with industry standards then they shouldn't then be able to go an pick and choose who's opinion they take as fact later on.

    If they've washed their hands of the responsibility themselves it's rather taking the piss to expect to be able to refute the findings of the very people they've ceded responsibility to, not once but twice, until they find someone to agree with them, but such is their biased and ridiculous system that here we are...

    If a club has used a recognised accountancy firm and there's no evidence of influence or illegal practices that should be the end of it as far as the EFL is concerned.

    I read on here that the auditor’s bio stated he was a fan, am I wrong?

    Regulations that didn't exist, and as far as I'm aware still don't. A preference isn't a regulation.

    for the upteenth time, the rules are standard accountancy ones, the dispute is whether the professor is right (LAP think so) or not (DC1).  It would seem sensible for the EFL not to set their own rules but rely on industry standards but it hasn't turned out that way
